Democratic leaders are ratcheting up their divisiveness and denigrating America. For the following four pieces explaining how, follow the links embedded in the headlines to read the full columns/editorial.
Biden is wrong: America’s soul isn’t racist (April 21): President Joe Biden is already starting to push people too far with his constant refrains about how racist this country is.
He is overstating a very weak case, and he risks becoming like former President Jimmy Carter when Carter’s so-called “malaise speech” had the annoying effect, in the insightful words of Vice President Walter Mondale, of “urging the people to be as good as the government.” The public and American culture are better than Biden says we are….
